Not having seen you since university, and before that high school, I have to say, “nice demo!”.
Question for you: will the next demo include a scenario around instant messaging? Phones barely ring in my office anymore but IM is the real interrupter these days.

Thank you all!
Sue - to answer your specific question, the iotum Relevance Engine is applicable to any real time communication. We haven’t done IM at this point, but certainly we know that it’s as much an interrupter as the phone.
